Little Old Dog was sedated on Monday for Xrays and is still quite wobbly. Heâs a little more lost than usual (this morning he got stuck between a bookcase and a wall in an area of the house he rarely ventures to), so itâs time to Senile Dog proof the house. Poor littlest love!

Oh poor little fella, sending hugs to senile pup đ€
Catfish@aussie.zone âš6â© âšmonthsâ© ago
Naaaw. Squish.
Senile kitty proofing was a thing. She forgot how to meow so finding her got tricky.

Oh no. Toby is so tiny, if he lost the ability to whine, Iâd have lost him for ages this morning, he was in such an obscure spot. I blocked it from future access, but now Iâm worried about all the other knooks and crannies he might be able to jam himself in⊠guess my evening is sorted!
Seagoon_@aussie.zone âš6â© âšmonthsâ© ago
so many gentle pats
melbaboutown@aussie.zone âš6â© âšmonthsâ© ago
Poor old bub. Keep him safe and give him some extra love
SpinMeAround@aussie.zone âš6â© âšmonthsâ© ago
Thank you! All the extra love for him while trying to keep him as happy and healthy as possible. Right now thereâs far more good times than bad times for him, but definitely mindful that scale will tip.

Now I have the stroller transporting cats is easy so I just booked Theodore in for some vaccinations at Lort Smith. đ±
Taleya@aussie.zone âš6â© âšmonthsâ© ago
ngl thatâs why we bought ours way back. So much easier transporting felines in a wheeled conveyance than dragging a carrier full of weight-shifting whining lilâ bitch around
Seagoon_@aussie.zone âš6â© âšmonthsâ© ago
got tired of trying to coordinate goget cars and days off for vet visits, now I can go when ever I have to
Bottom_racer@aussie.zone âš6â© âšmonthsâ© ago
I demand photos of the bum biter in his stroller.

Everyone encouraged to dress up for Halloween to work today. Iâm going as an overweight, sleep deprived, depressed desk jockey.

hmm thatâs weird - works for me (jerboa + web app).
PeelerSheila@aussie.zone âš6â© âšmonthsâ© ago
So the results are⊠nothing đNo Buruli Ulcer but no anything else either. Doctor wants to just hand ball me to specialist. I showed him pictures Iâd taken and said is it likely to be a form of Pityriasis. He agreed it could be, but said he wouldnât like to guess. Funny, he didnât mind guessing it was Impetigo and had me take antibiotics for a week while petrified I had an infectious disease. I said seeing as Iâve been using cortisone on it and itâs helping, can I get a script for more (Iâm using miniestâs tube and itâs almost ran out) and he ummed and ahhed about that and said that because he wasnât sure what it was he didnât really want to prescribe anything. As for the specialist, $365 is absolutely no dice. Itâs just not doable. Itâs already cost me a dayâs pay for this.
StudChud@aussie.zone âš6â© âšmonthsâ© ago
Thatâs fucked up. I mean, glad it isnât buruli, but what else could it be?
It isnât psoriasis is it? That responds to cortisone (I think) and is caused by everything from simple stress to other shitty diseases. If you send me a pic I can see if it looks like my psoriasis lol I think you still have my mobile number.
The Dr prolly is hesitant to prescribe cortisone without knowing what it is, as cortisone can make it worse. But if itâs helping⊠đ€·đŒââïž Iâm sorry that itâs so expensive. It fucking sucks how much a specialist can be, when not covered by insurance or Medicare. Ugh.
PeelerSheila@aussie.zone âš6â© âšmonthsâ© ago
Ok will send you some pics lol.
Taleya@aussie.zone âš6â© âšmonthsâ© ago
His Lordship copped fucking dyshidrotic eczema from covid - heâs on predniserone now and it seems to finally be kicking its arse
PeelerSheila@aussie.zone âš6â© âšmonthsâ© ago
Ooh thatâs nasty, poor thing! Glad heâs getting over it, itâs so uncomfortable.
CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone âš6â© âšmonthsâ© ago
Iâve had pityriasis. Twice. So I know what the itch is like. Antihistamines are your friends.
PeelerSheila@aussie.zone âš6â© âšmonthsâ© ago
Itâs weird isnât it. When I got the herald patch there wasnât any discomfort at all. Then the other rash started, and my goodness I showered too enthusiastically with a rough flannel but did it feel good.
melbaboutown@aussie.zone âš6â© âšmonthsâ© ago
I have a new unopened tube of cortisone cream I can peel my info off of if you have a PO Box to send it to? And could collect it as PeelerSheilaâŠ
I donât meet people or ask for identifying info but if itâs a PO box I can send it anonymously one way
PeelerSheila@aussie.zone âš6â© âšmonthsâ© ago
Thankyou, Iâve got a bit of the Antroquoril left, and when it runs out Iâll go the sigmacort route.
Eagle@aussie.zone âš6â© âšmonthsâ© ago
Some viruses can leave people with weird rashes, good to hear itâs responding to some treatment.
Bottom_racer@aussie.zone âš6â© âšmonthsâ© ago
$365
Ouch jeez some of them charge extreme prices.
calhoon2005@aussie.zone âš6â© âšmonthsâ© ago
So, Thom Yorke was amazing. I chatted to the person next to me⊠Quite young looking woman, asked her if sheâd seen Radiohead before, no first time. Told her Iâd seen them in 97. Wow, that was before they got big. my dad went to that tour, thatâs where I got this shirt That show was 27 years ago⊠I was very likely at least double her age. I donât know whether I should feel old as time itself or that I should assume itâs because of Radiohead being a timeless band and all that⊠Second one right?
Pilk@aussie.zone âš6â© âšmonthsâ© ago
Werenât things a little⊠eventful?
calhoon2005@aussie.zone âš6â© âšmonthsâ© ago
Yeah. Very vocal Palestinian protest by one person at the last encore. Fair enough, but unfortunately I donât think the crowd got on their side because of that interruption to the show and their yelling and anger towards Thom Yorke. Crowd actually felt quite tense until the protester decided to leave the venue. Just seemrd like an odd choice by the protester. Buy a ticket then wait until the final encore acoustic song to have their have their say in such an aggressive manner and toneâŠ
Nath@aussie.zone âš6â© âšmonthsâ© ago
I donât know where she got the idea that Radiohead werenât huge before 1997. That was the year Ok Computer was released, and thatâs about as big as Radiohead got.
calhoon2005@aussie.zone âš6â© âšmonthsâ© ago
She barely knew anything about ok computerâŠie. last song was Karma police, sheâd heard it before she thought⊠Different strokes I guess.

I donât know how some people have so much energy and motivation. You know the ones. You get tired just looking at them. I want this superpower.
Duenan@aussie.zone âš6â© âšmonthsâ© ago
Neither do I.
Iâm pretty grumpy and tired in the morning and listening to the animal farm of one of the workrooms when I get into work early in the morning and hearing it makes me even more exhausted.
RustyRaven@aussie.zone âš6â© âšmonthsâ© ago
Mr Woof must have wondered what was going on in the neighbourhood today. Our evening walk took us past all sorts of characters - a witch, a walking skeleton, the grim reaper and a walking pumpkin!
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone âš6â© âšmonthsâ© ago
Today was one of those âcan I just tell the client to go fuck themselves?â kind of days.

Boy racer out the car window: yah red headed slut! 5min later 60ish woman: you look adorable
Canât please them all, and why would you want to?
just_kitten@aussie.zone âš6â© âšmonthsâ© ago
Day off for uni, working from home, trying not to have a total wobble over feeling like maybe this was all a mistake. Iâm in too deep now! But as I get older I certainly find myself craving security over novelty and excitement. Kinda sad because I feel like I am shrinking as a person. Itâs not too late to claw back a sense of wonder and discovery though.
SituationCake@aussie.zone âš6â© âšmonthsâ© ago
Happy Halloween. Ooooooooooooo (is that the noise that ghosts make?)

Frustrating experience today with being led astray with google maps. Ended up driving and wasting so much time this afternoon through so much roadworks.
Might have been easier to pay for postage next time considering the petrol wasted.
Well at least Iâm finally home and can see if my new wares fit else itâs a return trip back there this weekend.

Anyone else noticed generic brands being out of stock a lot at Colesworths?
First the generic peanut butter was out of stock for quite a long time, the generic paper cat litter is still unavailable, now itâs the decaf instant coffee and cocoa powder. And the prices are still a gouge.
If it was more possible for me Iâd be predominately shopping at Aldi
Duenan@aussie.zone âš6â© âšmonthsâ© ago
Been awhile since Iâve used 7-11 fuel lock but theyâve capped the discount to 25c a litre now which effectively makes the discount useless.
I hated 7-11 to begin with now Iâm really not going to buy from them anymore.

Why does life have to be so difficultâŠ
The irony is that if it werenât for a few huge things I donât have control over, I could be happy and satisfied with the life I have.

Plex migration update: Gave up on Debian, installed Mint. Mint installed great, more options in the GUI this looks promising. It wants an update, no worries go for, reboot aaaaaand it no longer boots. You have got to be shitting me linux. Installed windows, replaced plex files and looks to have completely failed. Gave up in frustration and went to bed.

Ted n me went on an adventure to the park. He found sitting down to be easiest. He loved looking at all the birds tho some did not like him, he sniffed the sniffs and watched ducks swimming and people and cars on the busy streets but he was glad to be home and sat up once we got back to our little courtyard

His eyes were as big as saucers when we got home and I got him out the stroller. He also tried to bite me but thatâs normal.
Seagoon_@aussie.zone âš6â© âšmonthsâ© ago
omg, he loves his stroller, đ±, he went back in of his accord and is happily chirping in there Image
